It's a fitting award for Nagy, who led the Bears to a 12-4 record and their first NFC North division title since 2010.

He wasn't the only coach on the 2018 Bears staff that won an award, though. Ex-defensive coordinator Vic Fangio was also named the Assistant Coach of the Year:

Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who oversaw a Bears defense that led the NFL in takeaways and interceptions and included three PFWA All-NFL selections and one PFWA All-Rookie pick, was selected as the 2018 NFL Assistant Coach of the Year.

Fangio is of course now with the Denver Broncos, but it never hurts to leave town with a few extra awards in hand.
